Thank you!
I am kinda stuck at a 280mm. I have a Hyte Y60 and I don't want to do a 360mm AIO up top. I like the space I have above my motherboard, and then my exhaust fans are purely working on exhausting.
However there's also rad thickness to consider. The custom market is ripe with radiators So I found this, what the 280 lacks in surface area this makes up for in thickness. Plus it being copper will help as well compared to my current AIO.

SO basically I want a system where I have to upgrade CPU block/pumps. And keep this rad. I won't be switching cases anywhere in the near future either. Absolutely love the look of this case.
As for GPU cooling I'm really fine with air atm. I have 2 140mm fans installed under the GPU that push air up. Really my CPU is hotter most of the time... and I've repasted it just to see if it was my mounting that was the issue.
Yeah I like to have a good fan, using Corsairs and NZXTs currently. I am going to go for Noctua's one day. I have 4 black 140mms in my pc right now that I'd like to replace but that's gonna be 100 bucks just for fans.
The rad size is really my issue. I have room for a 280mm. and I am going to need a thicker one but there's hardly any AIOs with thick rads out there, so I want to build it. Also, not gonna change cases anytime soon case I love the Hyte Y60. Looks amazing, immediate eye catcher for people.
Here is the rad I am wanting to build it with:
